Canada

I would be interested to know what they are paying. I live in eastern Ontario and work for a US company. I generally won't even talk to Canadian companies because they offer less than half what I'm making now. I've been ghosted by head hunters working in Canada as soon as I tell them my compensation expectations. I told one that the company wasn't going to be ably to hire even an entry level sales engineer for what they were offering for a senior position.

If Canadian companies want to recruit actual top talent they need to double what they are offering st an opening negotiating position in terms of compensation.

The moves come as a wave of layoffs have hit the tech sector. Companies such as Meta, Amazon and Google have made cuts.

The Canadian work permit includes study or work permit options for the accompanying family members of US H-1B visa holders. It became available on 16 July and was scheduled to remain in effect for one year, or until immigration authorities received 10,000 applications.

Seems like right time for them to apply as many fear losing their jobs right now, as well as the spectre of an immigrant averse White House possibly on the horizon.

These are talented individuals that we’ve been losing due to salary differences between our country and the US for years. It’ll be determined how they contribute, but I expect a tech boom if this becomes more of a habit.

Very interesting. Great news for this country I would say.

This is an exceptional program. Can't wait to see how Canada's tech sector will grow.

Does Canada not have enough people looking for jobs?

I’m not sure how I feel about that.
